Armoire Tool Cabinet Conversion

[John Morris]

Wouldn't this make a wonderful tool cabinet conversion? The case is there, just add dividers and such, reinforce the doors and install piano hinges, I've been on the lookout for sometime now. I like the style too. Only 125 bucks, just a couple miles from me.

I love repurposing, this I think would do the job.

I believe that would make a GREAT tool cabinet.  Good bones.  Can't wait to see what you do to it so I can borrow your ideas (some day).

It looks like it's made from solid wood, so I'd say wear a mask when you pick it up!

[Smallpatch]

John I don't think you could buy the wood and put a finish on it for that much. And it might take you two months to build it using that neat saw combination you got!

[Gunny]

Nice find, do try and stay of the most wanted list when you pick this thing up!!!

 

I wish to be a social joiner today, I am with everyone else, that would look like in my house.

Yes that would make a great Studley clone , ,,,,,only 6 times the size. But yes I could see this great for controlling dust on your tools

[Bundoman]

That would be sweet!

[John Morris]

Thanks for your encouragement guys! Found it on Facebook Market Place, their seem to be a lot of great things with good prices there, sometimes folks just want the items gone from their home, no cost, just pick it up and get it out of there.

I called and nobody answered, perhaps they already moved out. I'll try again today.

[John Morris]

It sold.

Dang! Looked like a major SCORE!

Hang in there, with the latest generations of TVs - less depth and larger screen sizes, lots of people are getting rid of their "entertainment centers."

They are Keith, that is why they are so cheap right now. I've been looking under keyword "Armoire" and finding these low cost treasures, I have pretty good luck using "Cabinet" too, but the Armoirs seem to have the size and height I want in a tool cabinet.

This was a neat piece though, hey, been waiting a year to come across the right one, I guess this one just wasn't the right one.

Quit looking and suddenly the have 200 for sale cheap.  Usually happens right AFTER I build my own....

I was given a large entertainment center, and I am going to add a couple of shelves and put it in my study to shelve books. It also has one smaller cabinet for both sides which will be great to show off some of my antiques and deer antler pens I turned.
